We all know about the hatred the GQP has for providing healthcare for its citizens. They’ve tried to stop the ACA, they don’t exapand Medicaid, they don’t fund public health, anything and everything. Now, we find that there is a near perfect correlation between #COVID19 vaccination rates and voting in the 2020 presidential election. Guess what that means? It means we’re so fucked.

The attack on Congress by the seditious mob wound up by Trump was shocking even by Trump’s standards. But, it is the logical extension of a movement based on racism and white supremacy. In essence we are still fighting the Civil War.

The process we use to elect a president seems simple when everything goes “right” and goes unchallenged. However, when you take the deep dive into the process it because quite Byzantine and has plenty of places where it can be challenged, corrupted, and complex.

TL;DR, I KNOW, right? Who has seven minutes to give for their democracy? That’s asking for a huge sacrifice! There are two big possibilities left. The second one is a killer, likely to work, and probably will be tried!

What is wrong with white voters? A LOT! How could anyone in their right minds vote for four more years of Trump? Well, 57% of white voters did. There is a lot wrong there when you see 270,000+ needless deaths and want four more years of that shit.

Do you think that the crazy wild accusations of voter fraud and worldwide conspiracy to steal Trump’s landslide victory will eventually hurt Republican candidates? Think again. It plays into their plans to create single-party pseudo-democratic minority rule.

The circular firing squad is back on as progressive and moderate Dems argue over who snatched a squeaker from the jaws of a landslide in 2020.

There is much talk about bridging our political divide with lots of talk about reaching for white voters being regurgitated.

Those lies are destroying the country.
